Is it always an arms race, or is there a lock I can buy that I can trust for 15 years?
Chris
This is the lock I use on my bike!
chocolate squiggle
My heart sank when I saw this in my feed. I've had one of these for nearly 10 years. It's not my only form of security but I use it on the rear in conjunction with a second, more basic disc lock on the front of my motorbike, when stopping at supermarkets for example. I don't know if it has as many pins (being an old lock) but it has the same crescent shaped key. This video makes me happy.
Joshua Parsons
I just bought this for my motorbike a month ago. Its a couple of attacks on the shackle which were unsuccessful. And since LPL needed a CUSTOM pick, I'm fairly sure I haven't bought a lemon ;)
Nick
I have this lock and have tried creating a tool to pick it (unsuccessfully). I'm a noob by the way, but could someone kindly explain how/where the tension is applied? I have a tool-end broadly similar to what's on screen but am struggling to see what's being tensioned? The first disc?

So we've seen our lawyer pick and break into almost every lock under the sun but can you provide us with a list of locks that are some of your roughest challenges and durable for standard use thank you. this would be greatly appreciated ~ voiceof thepeople

I have this lock and this video makes me happy

I bought a pretty strong chain for my bike, now I need a good lock to put on it, the problem is my budget is only 20-25$ what would be the safest choice you think in that price range?
Charles Dahmital
Is it shim-able?
chipchapchopreturns
I use 2 of these, one on rear sprocket happy with them

LPL has such a tranquil voice-I can fall asleep to it. Don’t even care what the videos are about half the time. Probably couldn’t pick a lock to save my life. 😀
bluephreakr
Imagine if _all_ locks are like the mgnetic one that BosnialBill took apart. If the key could be inert and the lock wolly magnetic, it would be a _big_ win. Make it fail-safe with no means to unlock without breaking out grinding tools and there's a sure winner to deter bike theft because SPP would be _extinct._
CHRIS GIDDINGS
Can it be shimmed ?
LockPickingLawyer
No

I saw a super quick edit in the video. Ya had to be quick to catch it! How long did it really take to pick?

I'd like to see someone try to pick the alarmed version of this that I use without setting off the alarm
Canis Cerulean
@AMK if it's motion/jolt sensitive, the alarmed locks don't fare well against someone with steady hands. I'd like to see a disc detainer model with a pressure alarm in the torque disc that sounds if pressure is applied to it without turning some or all of the set discs correctly at the same time. Or a cheaper implementation might be to have a random disc with a zero turn cut, so if they try to pick that one, it triggers an alarm. Keep the motion alarm for low skill attacks, and the disc trigger for high skill attacks.
AMK
@LockPickingLawyer sounds good! I look forward to the attempt

I wonder how many criminals you are teaching your legendary lock picking skills but no clap I love your channel 😘
PtolemyJones
Not a lock expert by any stretch, so when I feel like I see any obvious way to make them all a lot better, I have to assume I am wrong. Hopefully someone can tell me why. Seems like the process involves pushing a series of pins, one after the other. Wouldn't a small spring behind each of the pins require then all to turn at the same time? If you picked pin one, and moved on to two, one would reset, undoing your pick. Clearly it wouldn't be that easy, but what am I missing?
Jaakko Fagerlund
Soo, how many tools do you want? :D

hey, are there *any* locks u'd recommend ?
TheRavinoth
I've been using this for my motorcycle for five years and it hasn't been touched. It would be too hard to cut and my bike being less sought after allows the lock to do it's job well: deter the thief so that they move on to something else.

I had oxford screamer lock for disc break and case broke off. If someone would want to pick my bike and throw it into a bus he would have huge rate of success just by cutting plastic casing and destroying electric part of lock. If he could do it under 10 seconds (which is possible).

So what lock do you recommend that is hard to pick and hard to destroy that will keep my stuff safe? Most thieves in my area aren't going to pick, but try to cut locks. However I'd rather kill two birds with one stone.

Every time I ask sparrows when the new disc detainer pick will be available they say two weeks That was six weeks ago

Could you design an unpickable lock?
Brent Landry
I had this lock with the covered chain for my motorcycle about 10 years ago and I liked it a lot. The plastic body is very thick and rounded making it hard for any kind bolt-cutter/chisel/hammering action to bite into. If you wrapped enough links in the shackle and locked it in a tight to-get-to spot, it made it hard to cut. The only thing left is to heft a 500+ lbs bike into your stolen truck, lol. If I recall, the chain was a grade 120; don't remember the link size but it was thick.

I'm wondering just how common expert lock pickers are out there. I would think that most locks are opened with brute force. I just don't see a guy with the skills of Al Mundy (or LPL) hunkering down with his pick set and stealing somebody's Specialized road bike. Maybe better to know a lock's resistance to chemical or mechanical assault.

New Proteus lock coming. Unbreakable. Uncuttable. Undestroyable. Can LPL do it? Can he???

How about a lock that you would actually recommend?

Anyone else look at the time of the videos before clicking to see if it might actually be a challenge for the LPL?
Oxford do make a another lock like this one called the "Oxford Boss Alarm Disk Lock". Anyone looking for extra security should go with that one because as soon as the lock is moved any would be thief will get a 120db fuck off for 10 secs. Lovely stuff.
Leighton Shehan
Please open the locks with the key before you pick them🙏

if we overlook the fact that a master can overcome any hurdle, this is a pretty good lock for a few weeks.

How common are picking attacks in public places? I have a suspicion that even locks that can be picked with a "plastic fork form the food stand across the street" will be subjected to physical attacks as "beating on things with a heavy object" is a lot more common skill set.
